Lagares may be the best defensive CF in the game, but he can't hit. His numbers would slightly jump in MKE, I guess.

It isn't that much fun that a centerpiece of the deal is in the process of recovering from TJ surgery. I guess that could be the only reason we're getting him if you want to be optimistic but still a pretty big gamble. At least it's a sign that they might be resigned to a multiple year rebuilding process.

A trade with upside and risk, yea ? How long until Wheeler can pitch again ?

Apparently Flores is still playing SS for the Mets right now.

It's a gamble. If Wheeler reaches his potential he could be a top of the rotation kind of guy, which obviously makes this a good deal. The main reason I like it is that is shows we might not be thinking about trying to contend next year which would be a step in the right direction.

Yup, blow it up now. Carlos was one of my favorite players. We better not half step the next couple days.

Not really sure how Wilmer Flores is still playing for the Mets right now if the trade is done.
